Chapter 31 Preparations (Part 1)

It is now 10 o'clock at night, the time when children go to sleep, while the time for adults is just starting. Therefore, there are mostly adults coming and going, and you can hardly see any children. Of course, students should have gone back early, even if there is no curfew at home, now is not the time for students to wander outside.

That being said...

"Yo, based on the information we received, it should be here."

Ryuto is standing in front of a building, but unlike usual, he is not wearing a school uniform or regular clothes. He is wearing a black suit and sunglasses, with a very mature look.

"Master Ryuto, it seems like it's on the top floor."

The one who speaks is Hiyori on the side. Hiyori's outfit is also different from usual, wearing a black evening dress. However, the dress is not too revealing as per Ryuto's request. She tied her hair up, and when she doesn't speak, she looks mature. But when she speaks, the mature image is ruined. There's nothing she can do since that's the natural attribute of her character.

If it's someone like Manami Senpai, this dress would be very suitable, but it's a bit too much for Hiyori, after all, Hiyori is not that mature type. Of course, this dress was not bought by Ryuto because it would be too extravagant for just one time. The reason for wearing this attire is because of a significant reason.

Let's go back a little in time.

After leaving school, Ryuto went straight to the game center. As expected, he met that despicable owner. Although he didn't want to see this person, Ryuto thought that this detestable guy is the most suitable person for the current situation. Although detestable, he's the most suitable. Fuck, this is so sinful. Of course, when Ryuto entered, he attracted a lot of attention. It seems his effectiveness from a few days ago is still there. But Ryuto still thinks that it's more important to get things done, so he directly went to the counter and found that detestable guy. The guy had a smirk on his face.

"Oh, young man, are you here again today?"

"Don't make it sound like I come here every day."

"I wouldn't be able to keep this game center open if you really did come every day."

"..."

I'm wanted for that...

"But it seems you have a different motive for coming today!"

"Don't use such creepy terms."

This person is really detestable, but Ryuto endured the impulse to beat him up.

With that, the owner quickly changed his attitude and asked with a serious expression.

"So, what exactly is it?"

"Let's change the location."

Ryuto pointed to the staff room behind the counter.

"Oh, is it some big secret? Are you finally deciding to take action against someone and want me to help with the planning?"

No, I shouldn't answer, otherwise, it'll never end.

So Ryuto walked straight in, and Hiyori followed. The owner didn't stop them, so it seems he gave his tacit approval. Finally, he said to the employees, "Watch the counter," and followed them inside.

They arrived at the staff room inside the game center like that. Ryuto wasted no time and got straight to the point. After hearing Ryuto's request, the owner patted his chest.

"You've come to the right person. I'm an expert in this field, and there's no one more reliable in this world than me. Leave it to me, and you can have complete peace of mind."

"..."

Even though he seemed very confident, Ryuto still felt a little uneasy. But he couldn't directly say it.

"Let's get started then."

With that, the owner turned to the inside.

"Bring them in."

Someone actually understood such vague request. Although it's vague, it surprisingly works. Soon, a man and a woman came in. They seemed to be employees of this place.

After calling them over, the owner whispered in their ears. The two only nodded from time to time. Hey, hey, did they really understand? Don't pretend if you don't know.

Afterward, the two led Ryuto and Hiyori to different rooms.
